Comments: Hopless, very sweet (brown sugar) porter with little body, little carbo and a general tendency towards lifelessness.

Pours dark brown with a tan head. Smells of chocolate, coffee, pepper, some spice and earthy hints. Tastes of caramel, chocolate, some bitter hints, elements of dark fruit. Mouthfeel is thick and malty. Finish is sweet. Nice!
